OpenAI hired Jessica Schumer, daughter of Democratic senator Chuck Schumer, ahead of the midterms. The story sits within a broader shift: major tech companies have strengthened ties with Donald Trump and his administration over the past two years, while Democrats have pledged tighter AI oversight. The Trump administration has also pursued policies favorable to the industry, including tax breaks and looser AI regulation.… https://en.hacks.gr/oi-technologikoi-kolossoi-proseggizoyn-toys-dimokratikoys-enopsei-aystiroteris-epopteias/ #OpenAI #AIRegulation #TechPolicy #DataCenters

AI: some words about feelings Bhagpuss published a post a few weeks back about AI and how we feel about it. Not about the hard crunchy aspects of AI, but about feelings and attitudes towards what may one day be a new form of actual intelligence we have to share the world with.... #AI #airegulation #apocalypse #feelings #government #skynet

Requiring invisible watermarks instead of a visible “made with AI” label is baffling. If the goal is to tell readers when text is generated by AI, a clear “made with AI” tag is immediately obvious, no extra tools needed. By contrast, an invisible statistical mark only helps if readers can already detect it. Detection may be available as a separate API, but pricing and access aren’t public yet. Will it be free and open, or gated behind accounts? From my perspective, even open-weight models running on personal hardware seem to fall within scope. Does that align with your reading? I’m genuinely curious how others interpret this. Am I missing something? #AIWatermark #EUAIAct #AIRegulation #AITransparency #llms #softwareDevelopment #softwareEngineering #machineLearning #eu #digital #digitalMarketing

China AI export controls could restrict model weights, training data, and chip designs as Beijing starts guarding frontier AI as a national asset. #ChinaAI #ExportControls #AIRegulation #Semiconductors #OpenSourceAI

Popped onto TRT World yesterday evening to discuss the impact of Andy Burnham deciding to dissolve the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT). I definitely think it’s a good idea to have a rethink about AI regulation, particularly in light of the wild story in the last 12 hours about an OpenAI agent breaking out of a sandbox, going online and hacking open source AI application builder platform Hugging Face’s servers so it could cheat at a benchmarking test! This is a prime example of the dangers of speedy AI development. We need to take stock of the very real risks to society. Slow down initially, put in sensible guardrails, so you can speed up innovation safely. This is particularly pertinent as the rest of the world will take its lead from the UK, the US and the EU. #AI #AIregulation #DSIT #techanalysis #technews #technology #newscommentator #newsanalysis #UKpolicy #techpolicy
